Hi,
I had this Modbus integration working a few months ago, and I understand that the Modbus YAML formatting has changed over the summer, so I’m now revisiting to try and get it working again.
I’m using this reference to try and configure it correctly:
A section of this web link looks like this:
modbus:
- name: hub1
type: tcp
host: IP_ADDRESS
port: 502
sensors:
- name: Sensor1
unit_of_measurement: °C
slave: 1
address: 100
I’ve simplified my configuration as much as possible to try and solve this, and it looks like this:
modbus:
- name: CC2
type: tcp
host: 192.168.2.22
port: 502
sensors:
- name: WattsNow
# unit_of_measurement: W
address: 4119
# count: 2
# device_class: power
The problem I’m having is under: Home Assistant / Server controls / check configuration. I’m receiving these errors:
Invalid config for [modbus]: extra keys not allowed @ data['modbus'][0]['host']. Got '192.168.2.22'
extra keys not allowed @ data['modbus'][0]['sensors']. Got [OrderedDict([('name', 'WattsNow'), ('address', 4119)])]
not a valid value for dictionary value @ data['modbus'][0]['type']. Got 'tcp'
required key not provided @ data['modbus'][0]['baudrate']. Got None
required key not provided @ data['modbus'][0]['bytesize']. Got None
(and more similar ones…)
So it sort of looks like it’s looking for serial connection details, and not a TCP connection?
If I remove the ‘sensors’ section, the configuration is valid - but isn’t much use without any sensors(!)
Been trying different things for a couple of hours and no joy. I think I’ve carefully checked all the YAML indentations etc…
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
cheers
